The Wright Brothers & the Invention of the Aerial Age

This new exhibit really delves into the life of Wilber and Orville Wright, as well as how they actually invented the airplane.

The Early Flight exhibit contains quite a few historic aircraft from the time between the Wright Flyer in 1903 and the outbreak of World War I in 1914.

Early Flight

America By Air

America By Air gives a pretty cool summary of commercial aviation in the United States. It covers air traffic controllers, airmail, and more.

Destination Moon

One of the biggest highlights of the renovated exhibits is the Apollo 11 Command Module Columbia on display inside Destination Moon.
